Pet Mimic! Using Soverign Glut in the Underdark you can reanimate the horrific Mimic in Act 2.
To get the Mimic as your spore servant you need to head to moonrise towers. Once you get to the top of the stairs, go past Balthazar’s room to eventually find a curious treasure chest that actually turns into a Mimic when you get too close. Slay it, and then pick it up. In order to do this, I had Karlach wear the The Mighty Cloth which grants +2 strength and DOUBLES your carrying capacity. I also drank an Elixir of Hill Giant Strength for good measure. After emptying Karlach’s inventory she was able to pick up the Mimic. Teleport to the Myconic Colony Waypoint and have Glut use Animating Spores on your new Mimic pet!
You can also use these spores on Gnolls. The Newly Born Gnoll weighed the least so I dragged his corpse down into the underdark to offer it up to Glut. As he breathed new life into its corpse, it began to float and glow a sickly green and I wasn’t sure I was the good guy any more. Then I was convinced I was the bad guy when I commanded the Gnoll to tear off its ear and use it as a throwing weapon.
You can also use these spores on the Harpies in the Emerald Grove - you’ll need to slay them and carry their corpses to Glut - these are pretty light so you shouldn’t need much strength. They keep their Luring Song ability which is pretty cool, but the music doesn’t play when you use the ability, which is a bummer. The harpy is also missing climbing animations, they kind of just glide down ladders in a squatted position, kinda like they’re taking a dump.
You can also use these spores on the Gremishka in the Rosymourn Monastery. But sadly they do not keep their Magic Allergy as a spore servant, so it’s kind of like a cat familiar with a much stronger bite, also it doesn’t have fur if you ever wanted a furless cat pet.
You can also use these spores on the Ettercap, which wins the award for the grossest pet I think I’ve ever seen in this game. As if the Ettercap wasn’t gross enough before being turned into a spore servant. This monstrosity truly earns the label - it can shoot webs, multi-attack and… ICE SKATE? Yep when an ettercap tries to sneak he breaks out his ice skates and glides.
You can also use these spores on Worgs. There is a small one named Klaw at an outpost right before the goblin encampment, being lighter than other worgs is perfect since we need to drag his corpse to Glut to reanimate, and the other worgs are too heavy. The undead worg looks incredibly gross too, and just has bite, so it’s not the best spore servant, but very nearly the grossest looking.
Of course, as it’s widely known you can use these spores on the Bullete. This massive monstrosity creature burrows and emerges periodically while you’re in the underdark until you slay it. This is one of the best creatures to use animating spores on because of its massive health pool and high damage.
You can use animating spores on all Phase Spiders from the smallest ones to the biggest one, all are considered monstrosities and can be animated as your spore servant! The Phase Spider’s Ethereal Jaunt is a really cool looking ability to get into position.
You can also use animating spores on the Minotaur found in the underdark as well - these massive monstrosities have really cool art and are up there in terms of good choices for animating spores.
And last, you can use animating spores on Hook Horrors. These can be found near the SOOSER tree in the underdark and are quite powerful too, able to knock enemies prone and then use multi-attack on them for burst damage.

This needs more upvotes!
Thank you for this - now I don't have to pick between the badass sword or one of the funniest interactions
If you've romanced Shadowheart after poisoning the goblins, when she offers you a cup of wine, you can crack a joke about something like "I don't know...That didn't turn out great for the goblins" which she is amused by.
I was so disappointed when i found that our spore druid skills dont work like gluts... huge let down
MAN THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED, STILL WAITING A MOD (please do me something, PLEASE)
Understandable though, the game would be a nightmare for the devs to balance if a spore druid could resurrect some of the crazy strong enemies throughout the game as an ally
Yeah, definitely should have been a higher level ability, but would have been so neat. That said, I do think Act 3 doesn't have that many good targets to revive. Sahagin Champion and werewolves are about the only two I think of off hand. There's a mimic corpse in the counting house too? Am I forgetting anything?
@@TheSidetrackYT could just give them all the same stats only thing that would change would be the looks and the skills they could use
@@De1usionsofGrandeur or to have a limit on how many monstrosity you can res
You can get a Mimic pet in Act 1, without going to Moonrise Towers. In Grymforge, when arriving and going up the stairs, go right and forward instead, until you see a tent and a patrolling duergar. You'll see a bit of tiled path leading out to a cragged rock at the end. If you click it to go down, youll see an area with 3 chests and a harper symbol, these are 3 mimics. (You'll know you're in the right area because its not even marked with the outline of accessible terrain on the map.)
I didn't convince the goblins I didn't poison the booze, I told them I did it and threatened to gut anyone who told. Much more satisfying. I love my Drow Warlock.
Oh my goodness, that's hilarious to get your elementals arrested and their weapons confiscated. That Azer warhammer actually seems really good for an Eldritch Knight heat build I've been itching to put together actually, though clearly the Electrostun flail is probably the strongest.
It's interesting in a way, because it speaks to how the developers probably programmed all of the elementals' abilities, by putting them on weapon actions.
My apologies for replying, but there's no comment button on my end, I was trying to figure out the last 2 summons he uses for the flail and trident because he did not say in the video.
It looks like he skipped which summons give the Flail and Trident. Air Myrmidon and Water Myrmidon specifically. I wonder if the Earth and Fire do the same thing.
Earth doesnt have a weapon
and the fire one uses a sword
@@sportyzmech2104 so it would work on the fire myrmidon?
@@MasonPeatross I don't see why not
if you dont want to jump in Cazador's dungeoun, theres also a lift that goes up and down between the "floor" pelorsun is on and the main floor.
It's hard to see, but its over by Velioth's skull on the left as you're going in. Might have to snipe a button on the pillars below to activate it, but its a cage that goes up and down.
Also! Found out something last night in my honurge run. Hamarhraft, the maul you can find in the burning room in Waukeen's rest in Act 1, has a shockwave ability that deals 1d4 aoe thunder damage on a jump. *This also works with flying using the fly spell or levitating*.
So every time you land it causes the shockwave ability to fire. Since flying around is considered a free action, only limited by your movement speed, you can get real silly real fast with the damage from the aoe just clicking around enemies without provoking opportunity attacks.
There is a simple working method for obtaining weapons from summons. When you press the preview button (eye icon) in sumon's inventory, you can see the equipment for a moment. You can quickly drag a weapon, press tab and put it in your character's inventory. Just picked up Azer's hammer.
I wonder if we can use the "go to prison" trick to get the Deva mace too! It's a really strong weapon. I normally get it by robbing the temple in Act 3 and having them spawn, killed, and despawn in camp (where they'll leave the mace as a pouch).
I heard they patched that, when’s the last time you did it?
@@knowlen I just did it for my Honour Mode run!
I just did it today (January 5, 2024). I also changed class to a cleric of Kelemvor to get a Djinni from the Castigated By Divinity curse for its poison scimitar. Remove Curse summons one Deva, Djinni, or Cambion, healing summons two.
@@jimking8342How do you get the Cambion?
@@8684LYFE I love the irony of abusing a bug in a mode called "honor mode", lol.
You can actually use animating spore on PHASE SPIDER MATRIARCH if you killed her by push her(I use eldritch blast) into the hole that drop you to the underdark.
oh wow. Thats good one
From what I've seen said elsewhere that was patched out
@@-user_redacted- Oh really? I used that trick like 2 months ago, I am not sure it’s patch out or not, thanks!
@@user-el3lp8gm8t I think it would happen if she's still alive when she's pushed into the pit.
So.... if you were to say.... KO her down to 1 hp or really low, say within range of a thunderwave damage... and thunderwave her in. Or on the web bridge above the underdark pit, then maybe then?
@@-user_redacted-I don’t think it was ‘patched’ out, but they don’t allow you to do it in Tactician and Honour mode. I think you can still push her down in Explorer and Balanced.
You know there are like 3 mimics at Grymforge that you can kill and carry?
not needing to be in Act 2 where by then theres no point going back to the underdark cause you got more important things to do....
If you are a drow, you can convince the spiders in the goblin camp you are their god if you use speak with animals.
This is the best. I did this as a drow paladin oathbreaker
you can convince lolth* that she should allow you to perform
it's not a persuasion check
just tried to test this when my azer commited vandalism the guards chose blood instead of the option for prison
You can get the floor for the counting house password vault door wet, then hit it with any lightning damage to open the door. There's a note that says the mechanism's broken, so not to use lightning while the floor's wet nearby as a hint for that. Literally throw a bottle of water anywhere on that section of floor, and a scroll of lightning bolt on the water and boom, you're in. You can also pick the locks for all of the high security vaults, but they're DC30 so good luck.
DC 30 isn't that hard with a rogue with a lot of sleight of hand proficiency plus advantage via Cat's Grace from the Enhance Attribute spell or the Graceful Cloth armor (or the Gloves of Thievery)
@michaelzoller5303 That wasn't a sarcastic "DC 30 is impossible" good luck, it was a "this is moderately challenging at the beginning of act 3" good luck
For those attempting to use the Twist of Fortune: You CANNOT reverse pickpocket if you're playing on console, effectively making it useless if you're attempting to nuke with it.
Also, patch 5 updated the game where hitting an enemy with the Twist of Fortune destroys the gold on hit, so you can't just give all your gold to an enemy, kill it, and then loot the gold
They really should have given lvl 12 spore druid this ability😢
That skill is too OP lol
With the same level-requirment as the Oathbreaker one I think it could be fair, maybe reduce spore servants hp some.
and lvl12 necromancers the ability to make a Flesh Golem, seriously the ghouls are cool but other than lvl6, the other perks for necromancer S U C K S
@chi7818 it's a single player game tho let us be op at the end game😆
He gets haste spore armor, thats enough 😂🎉🎉
There’s a note by the vault door that hints about it, but you can short circuit the floor buttons and bypass the code.
Create water on the buttons, then electrify the water.
I applaud your innovation sir. I love glut pets and i gotta try this now 🎉🎉🎉
I keep getting amazed with how many interactions and things there are to find in this game.
love to watch videos like these as if there's ever a chance i'm replaying this game again to try these out
Shhhhhhhh my main game 200h+ 2 dead honur runs promised myself ill stop but currently checking new mods. Yeah i am 100 % with u brother😅
i watched a lot of videos, made several playthrough, and yet, the first two weapons i never even heard of it. so thanks!
Oooh I'm gonna keep Twist of Fortune on me at all times now, just in case. Talk about pay to win!
lol it really is pay to win xD
There's a little item in the gross cult underground area before the ketheric fight that gives advantage from bliss that also gives vulnerability to psychic damage in a couple meter range that I use for skill checks and psychic smight on my paladin for decent damage
I was thinking about the Resonance stone for a potential shadow monk build considering how much psychic damage they can dish out. Paladin might do well with it too of course.
I don't like 'cheating' summons' weapons, but having it arrested that's next level.
always wondered where that cave in spiders pit lead to, didnt realise you could do that :o
Getting enemies wet might open them up to vulnerabilities, but getting allies wet opens them up other...possibilities.
Now that was interesting information and I must admit some of it I was completely unaware of. Thank you for the video. Peace
you could just bring the mimic from grymforge instead of going all the way to moonrise tower
since when is create and destroy water able to cast as a cantrip?
I forget which update, but it wasn't always so
Conjuration subclass wizards can cast it without a spellslot at lvl 2. There's also an item that lets you cast it without a spellslot
The one we see in the video appears to be a bugged version of the upcasted create and destroy water. The UI shows its supposed to be a lvl 2 spellslot version, but it just doesnt have a spellslot cost.
@@warper111 He just completely forgot to tell us how to do it lol
I was surprised to hear this too! Definitely not that way in early access!
@@warper111I thought that was something they could only do once a short rest?
I love that you can do something like bring a mimic to glut but it really doesn't do anything since by the time you're at moonrise you shouldn't need to go to the colony area
This videos is amazing. I'm gonna use some of this for my honor run.
On the spiders in the goblin camp, if you have speak with animals, and are a Lolth Drow when you enter their area you can interact and have them attack the goblins as well.
loving the weapons from the summons, hope it doesn't get patched out because they look so neat
wow some of these I never would have considered doing
Depending on how the matriarch fight goes, you can push her into the under dark (if she dies nearby) and animate her with Glut. It makes the entire under dark kind of trivial, but I did it one run. Also because she is so big, its hard to move her around.
Have you thought about using the spores on lump the ogre after using the horn a couple of times he betrayed me in the under dark so you can get his and 2 other ogre corpses down there, there’s also those Kuo toa you could probably carry those back up
Never noticed that Withers Respeccs reset Vendor inventories......that's a very nice little tidbit to keep in my back pocket. :^)
1:19 the most broken one is taking Voss as enemies keep their legandary actions in honour mode.
This is amazing 🤩
I have a vague memory of seeing some tip that involved looting from a temple (a charity box?) causing a pair of angels to appear, killing them and putting them in a box to send to camp.
The idea was to have the bodies in the camp during long rest, causing them to despawn and leave very strong angelic maces behind?
Create water as a cantrip still counts as a level 1 spell so you can fly after casting it if you play Tempest Sorcerer multi-classed with Tempest Cleric.
Create water as an action, fly as a reaction, so doing it in one turn even at low level is quite good.
Saving you from casting misty steps -and so spell slots- to explore, for most of your run.
Didn't test it to fly down in the underdark by the spiders lair though...
if you kill Gekh Coal without him using Animate Dead, you can revive him with the Spores and he can use it. He doesnt regain spell slots tho, but the funny thing is the undead he summons are the same ones he summons at the start of the fight with you and even when he is a spore zombie the summons are considered enemys that will attack you.
I'm so suprised that they actually made undead character variants for all enemy types. I would have guessed they would allow only creatures from the underworld to be revived, not random characters.
Now it makes sense why one cannot pickup some characters 😅
you can also use animate spores on the phase spider matriarch boss if you thunderwave it into the pit
Last part, about the spiders, you can do it in another way. Talk to them through the jail, convince them to eat goblins, like "goblins are tasty than me" or something like that. Then use invisibility to open the jail using the lever and let them kill a lot of goblins.
If you're a lolth sworn drow, you can just tell the spiders to be based and follow lolth with no skill check and take them upstairs
3:56 i doesnt work
dryad cant commit vandalism, fight starts instantly
I somehow brought glut with me into act 2, and can revive squirrels and jays and its amazing :p
Nice video, would you happen to know the location of the Rebound Battleaxe?
For the mimic chest, isn't it easier to get the cheast near the adamantine forge (harpers stach)? That way you don't have to enter act 2 to get this.
Can Glut raise NPCs though? Haven't tried it. Spaw definitely can raise them up as spore zombies. I tried it with Nere, cut off his head, brought his corpse to Spaw, and then started a fight with him on Glut's quest. He raised Nere as a headless spore zombie, then I killed Spaw and headless spore zombie Nere was just standing there near his own head.
For the spiders if you have animal talking you can just talk to them and convince them to eat goblins instead from just the door
You can release the spiders much more easily by walking behind the main chamber and shooting the lever from above. No breaking things required.
I just found out the Loviatar Cleric in the Goblin camp has a mace that does an additional 1d6 necrotic and grants resistance to necrotic 😲 Shadowheart is so much better now with that
I hate how many different ways to play this game lol. Now I have to replay and a bunch of stuff I didn’t know.
Bullette and Minotaur makes fun animations. Spider Queen?
u can use the spores on the spider machiart as well if u knock her down
Keep doin the no intro thing man, love it!
For glut to revive things; does he have to be the leader of the colony or can there be both of them their? Also are these pets mine to summon at will whenever forever?
I tried taking controls of my summons and having them do crimes to get put into jail but it didn't work. How do I get them to jail?
Interesting stuff in this one. I wonder if any of it will get patched out eventually
U can pet Nere if u dont take a quest for his head but if u make a revolution u will not be able end quest
Getting your elemental arrested for the weapon, works out only once every different prison? Cuz since I done this, the very first time. It seems I can't get arrested anymore due to them wanting to kill me instead 😅
What is the trick behind that?
you can also use spores on the spider queen if you throw her in the hole
You don't need a key to open the counting house vaults. It's only DC 30 lockpick.
The summon thing isn't working for me, my azer has been wreaking havoc but they just keep saying "watch it"
Can mindflayers have the spores used on them? You can pick up some mindflayers
Dam, wish i knew about spore servants before all thos bodies disappeared
How do you get the cantrip version of create water?
I need to see if this works on the Ilithid I been walking around with in my inventory for the last month
10:37 I slapped my head so hard once I realized back in Act 1 when I failed to detect a dirt mound and its location is obvious you can just use Dig on the spot and you can still get it even if you failed the check......HAHAHAHAH of course the game lets you that's awesome....I was just used to every-game telling me for 20 years..(You find nothing) By telling me I failed I actually won.
Whenever you click "throw", the screen freeze for half a second. To solve it, put everything in your inventory to a backpack, except for your throwing items. The more item in your inventory, the longer the screen freezes.
Can you turn that one super strong frog in the swamp into a spore servant?
I think they fixed all the summons because I keep trying and they don't give me the dialogue options they just immediately start combat
I figured out the staff and Deva mace, but that's it.
I hope the cool weapons don’t get patched out!
I think it would be easier if you took the mimics from the grymforge rather than from moonrise towers lmao. Then if you wanted you could get like 2 or 3
Does anyone know if there is a mod that give the Summon's Weapon's attack animations?
what summon is used for the flail of the vortex?
I wish spore druid reanimate was this
You dont actually have to commit vandalism if you are on pc, you can just open the inventory and inspect, then drag out the weapon.
How are you able to go from Moonrise Towers to the Mycenid Colony?
I thought if you moved from Act 2 to Act 1, you get Mindflayered?
only if you get far enough in the shar temple
Could u use animated spore on the spectator in the underdark?
Is "going to prison" already fixed? They don't want to talk with summon about vandalism
Had this same question. Just tried to get a dryad to break a bunch of stuff, entangle guards, move things around, etc., but even after maximum disapproval, no arrest warrant came up!
Also, they reduced blood money dmg from 5 to 3 :(
I used the spores for the githyanki lvl 6 lady.
The guards keep instantly attacking instead of giving me dialogue when my summons break a single barrel in Baldurs Gate. What can I do to to fix this and obtain the dryad staff?
I think they ghost patched it
If you throw the matriarch spider in the hole and find her body in the underdark, can you revive her with spores? That would be kinda badass
Yes u can
Where's the best place to commit vandalism with my dryad summon? At the tower I just keep getting -5 opinion but they never do anything... What am I missing here? Thanks in advance.
In moonrise towers I found going up the ladder near the jail cells can get dialogue to start. It's really random. Destroying things or moving things that have a red curser sometimes worked for me too. In Act 3 I got it to trigger consistently when a civilian reported the summon to a guard after I destroyed an object. Hope that helps.
So it's possible to push the matriarch spider down into the under dark to kill it. Could we animate that?
Can you reanimate the Mind Flayer you kill after the crash as Spore Servant?
Glut in my game doesnt have any spores, was it nerfed ?
I happened to defeat the Spider Matriarch by pushing it down into the hole and therefore it ended up in the Underdark... Have anyone tried raising that one with spores? I Killed Glut before I was able to, but could be fun to test!
I don't know why but when I commit vandalism they just start combat. How do i stop this?
Blood money is nerfed to 3dmg per 300 gold by the way. Still broken. Reverse pickpocket 20k into anything mid/late game and it’s goodnight Irene
wonder if you can raise the shadow mastiffs with glut
Wait, how do you get Create Water as a cantrip?
On Xbox you can't take any theDead to store in travellers chess for animated spores
how do you teleport back from act 2 to act 1 ?
Is the method to get weapons from summons patched out or exclusive to difficulties below honour mode? Tried doing it in the exact same location of moonrise prison but it's results in either a fight or just infinitely -5 attitude to azer.
Edit: the method from @A_Orionis works, I suggest you pin their comment.
about weapons you aren't supposed to have, you forgot the minotaur's mace
after you enter the underground, there's a part where there's 2 minotaurs.
1 of them have a big mace, so you can use your paladin or cleric and use the command "disarm" on the minotaur. then hurry and loot the weapon before he take it back.
the mace is very good
enemies won't pick their weapon back up unless there's literally nothing else they can do. they'll just start attacking unarmed.
Unfortunately in the current patch the minotaur weapon is marked as "cannot be equipped by a humanoid" and not even trying to slide the weapon directly into the slot will allow it to be used.
This has been patched like months ago. This patch includes steel watcher's sword, ogre's club, minotaur's club etc. you can't wield any of these anymore.
